Win a hamper
With Christmas on its way, no doubt you’re planning some super recipes to share with family and friends. With Essential ingredients, you know you’re in good hands with ethically traded, organic, vegetarian and vegan fare the order of the day!
There are plenty of ‘beautiful basics’ to choose from including Brazil nuts, Fairtrade cashew nuts, sesame seeds, apple juice-infused cranberries, herbal tea and fresh coffee. Tinned pulses in water and exotic fruit in fruit juice are great standbys for rustling up dishes in a hurry while the range of vegan pestos can pep up pasta in minutes. There are plenty of treats too for Christmas catering from a range of three fairtrade chocolate spreads to tahini to luxury muesli and cinnamon porridge!
There’s plenty to choose from at www.ethicallyessential.coop and it couldn’t be easier to create an ethical shopping basket in just a few clicks. Every single product has proven provenance and is ethically and/or fairly traded. You don’t need to check the small print – Essential has done that for you!
We are giving away a hamper of Essential food, including its five new recipe cards, worth £50 to one lucky Green Parent reader. To enter simply send your name and address and the name of your favourite Christmas treat to info@ethicallyessential.coop.
The competition ends at midnight on Sunday 11th December 2011.
Melissa Corkhill is the editor of The Green Parent magazine, mother of two and author of the book Green Parenting
